A detailed description is preceded by general considerations of Euroregions as unifying factors that strive for a “human face of integration” Euroregion as a natural region is expressed through a deep unity of mutual interests of local communities and a transformation of “internal multiplicity” into “external unity”, which is of special importance in the Carpathian Euroregion. The Carpathian Euroregion, begun in a trouble spot at the junction of five countries with similar past, aims at unity in diversity. And although there were different opinions about Polish initiatives and contentment with Ukrainians at creating this structure, today there is mutual acceptance. The EU financial support helps develop the economy of these peripheral areas and, most of all, lets the partners get to know each other better, become closer and tighten mutual ties.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/EuropaeuroregionyKarpatyEuroregion KarpackiPolskaUkrainawspółpracaintegracjaeuropeistykasocjologiaspołeczeństwopolitykastosunki międzynarodoweróżnorodnośćEuropeCarpathiansPolandUkrainecooperationintegrationEuropean studiessociologysocietypoliticsinternational relationsdiversityArticle
